    Verse 1:

    G             D                Cadd9              D                 G  D  Cadd9  D

       It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart

    G             D                   Cadd9      D                 G  D  Cadd9  D

       Without saying a word, you can light up the dark

     

    Prechorus 1:

    C (1)                       D (1)

    Try as I may I can never explain

    G              D                     Cadd9        D (1)

    What I hear when you don't say a thing

     

    Chorus:

               G                D                    Cadd9           D                    

    The smile on your face lets me know that you need me

                      G                     D              Cadd9         D                    

    There's a truth in your eyes, saying you'll never leave me

               G                   D                        Cadd9 (1)       D (1)   C  D

    The touch of your hand says you'll catch me wherever I fall

     C (1)               D (1 hold)

    You say it best, when you say nothing at all

     

    Repeat Intro

     

    Verse 2:

    G             D              Cadd9        D                 G  D  Cadd9  D

    All day long I can hear people talking out loud

    Em            Bm                Cadd9             D                 G  D  Cadd9  D

    But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd

     

    Prechorus 2:

    C (1)                                      D (1)

    Try as they may they can never define

    G                          D                  Cadd9                D (1)

        What's been said between your heart and mine
